I like to think Boot and Marie Curie would have hung out and been fierce together :-)

Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.

- Marie Curie

I like that Marie Curie says fear _less_. Understanding is so great for getting past blocks. Sometimes understanding might even be, hello ancient survival mechanism of fight, fight, freeze or fawn, would you like some blood pressure medication? I would like my mind to be clear while I face this scary thing! A steady heart can be handy in days of frayed souls.

Thanks to all my patrons and a special big extra thanks to Lisa Jenkins, Kate Webb, Matthew Noe, Sandra M. Odell and Erik Owomoyela.
